CVE-2023-4574

Al crear una devolución de llamada a través de IPC para mostrar la ventana Color Picker, se podrían haber creado varias devoluciones de llamada iguales a la vez y eventualmente todas destruidas simultáneamente tan pronto como finalice una de las devoluciones de llamada. Esto podría haber llevado a un uso después de la liberación que provocó un bloqueo potencialmente explotable. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Firefox < 117, Firefox ESR < 102.15, Firefox ESR < 115.2 y Thunderbird < 115.2.

The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: When creating a callback over IPC for showing the Color Picker window, multiple of the same callbacks could have been created at a time and eventually all simultaneously destroyed as soon as one of the callbacks finished. This could have led to a use-after-free causing a potentially exploitable crash.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when the "UpdateRegExpStatics" attempted to access "initialStringHeap". An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.
